Transparencia
The piece references symbolic monuments, using the flag—a universal symbol of territory, identity, and community as its central motif. Traditionally a unifying symbol, here the flag becomes a site of complexity, reflecting the persistence of diversity within the illusion of unity. Through the cultural interweaving of materials, Transparencia explores themes of migration, memory, and the construction of both personal and collective identities.
The clothing that forms the flags carries the imprint of the people who have shaped my existence, grounding the work in a narrative of belonging and continuity. The installation questions notions of homeland and territory, suggesting that identity is not static, but an ever-evolving tapestry woven from the influences and experiences of those who precede and surround us.
